My 70 gallon build

[HUNTER01975]

so the back of the tank went dark this weekend..

and i also got a carbon reactor from OBD.....

I think now it is time to get this tank drained and in the house..

today after work i drained the tank and sump and brought it upstairs with my super tough wife...
also blacked out my cpr lid and the sides and back to cut down on the alge.
here are the pic's

Looks great nice build. You should put the heater in the sump when you get it running so you can't see it. But Keep going fill fill fill......Looks great.

The sand doesn't settle when you are watching

 

[user 26995]

[HUNTER01975]

lol.. well change of plans a little my wife finally said that she would rather have some trigers and lion fish over coral so we are going to go that route with the tank.

So I took the wife and kid to OBD today while at OBD Becca swiped our super cute baby and held him hostiage till we bought the phos. side of there dual reactor set up cause I had already bought the carbon side so I put in line today here is a pic.

the water is clearing up nicely will try and post a pic tommorow..
